Aria Offers Rare Cognac & Champagne Dinner Pairing
Sage at Aria is uniting with A. Hardy U.S.A. for a one-of-a-kind dinner party on Thursday, Oct. 9 at 6 p.m. The event is offering the opportunity to sip on rare cognac and Champagne – all paired with a five-course meal.
Executive Chef Richard Camarota designed the menu for this event with Craig Shoettler, Aria’s master mixologist, and Benedicte Hardy, CEO of A. Hardy, as hosts guiding guests through the dinner, explaining the history of each cognac and the thought process behind each Champagne pairing decision.
The flavorful dinner selections, which will have guests asking for seconds, feature the following culinary selections and champagne pairings:
